About the Game

Welcome to Alderwick Valley! The mantle of Witch of the Valley now passes to you—are you ready to embrace the magic your Aunt once wielded?

As you explore the Valley, you’ll uncover a rich tapestry of strange and wonderful plants—each with its own magical properties.

Some plants thrive in the warmth of the sun, while others prefer the cool shade of the forest. Then there are the truly peculiar plants that are said to be touched by the ghosts that used to haunt the Valley, and others are filled with different flavored jelly that taste like candy!

These mystical plants are more than just beautiful—they’re powerful. Use them to craft magical candles, each designed to solve a unique problem or unlock a hidden truth.

  • Need to inspire confidence? Try crafting the Lion's Breath candle!

  • Trying to mend a broken bridge or reveal a secret cave? There’s a candle for that too.

You will discover what your candles can do to the Valley. Whether you're mending broken bridges, banishing the glowing Moss, or solving the Valley’s many riddles, your candles are the key to it all.

Adventure, mystery, and magic await—are you ready to light the way?
